Equine Health Care and Training

Written and curated by Bo Cruz

In a continuing attempt to professionalize Mule Train's "Livestock Management Certification Program (LMCP)," this month's topics include focus on Health Care and Training.Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

HEALTH CARE: This first video is a follow-on segment that augments last month's activity when our mules underwent dental care. It discusses how to safely check your animal's teeth so that you know what to look for.

TRAINING: Our second topic introduces two training videos suggesting a training technique that uses the "Come-Along Rope," a unique method for gradually teaching your mule to respond to your commands using the "Ask, Tell, Demand" method.
